Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen.

Some of the lodges of the thirty thou
sand locomotive firemen held meeting
in Tammany Hall, New York City, re
Gently. Mr.. Chauncey NJ. Depew, in
an address, said:
Il have been led to believe that the
fireman is the most popular Of all the
employees in the railroad service. Out
of every hundred applications 1 get for
positions, ninety are for fire If get
off at way station anywhere, the farm
ers' boys who want work always ask for
never anything else but fire The
American boy wants excitement, work,
and opportunity to rise; and when he
gees the train hurrying across the mea-
dow, the fireman before the open door
of the furnace, glowing like demon in
the red glare, is to him a type of pro-
gress. He knows it is exciting, he
knows it is hard work, but ism afraid of
it, and he knows that there is promotion
when the time comes and he is worthy
Of it.
81 believe in organizations like yours,
and l like your motto, Protection,
charity, industry and sObriety.' The
two best anti-poverty medicines in the
world are industry and sobriety, and the
two best anti-pOverty societies in the
world are the Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Engineers and the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Firemen. They have al
ready abolished poverty SO far as they
are concerned.
eve hear a great deal nowadays about
the bloatcd capitalists and monopoly.
Into the New York Central Railroad q
few capitalists have put their millions,
the farmers put their few thousands,
and the widows their $40O or $1,000.
And this is the 'grasping monopoly
1t is a cooperative society for running a
railroad, and you and l are its employees.
/ have come down to talk to my follow
employees, and have put on my best Sun
day clothes. Now this road will earn
about S34, 100000 this year. The
'spouter' hears this, and declaims about
its being taken out of the people and
put into the pockets of the capitalist.
But out of it comes $12,00O,000 for
wages-you and l get that; 5000, 900
for taxes, and O,5OO,000 for repairs,
mostly for labor, leaving something
over $3,0OO,O 600 for dividends. SO that
the bloated capitalist pays out $31, 900,
600 for labor and bloats ON $1,000, 900.
None of 'em have burst yet, believe. I"

These Ugly Weeds.

Now comes the battle with the weeds.
No one can afford, after having prepared
his land and made it rich with valuable
manures, to then neglect it to such an
extent as to allow the worthless weeds
to get possession, or even to appropriate
to their own support any considerable
part of the outlay which has thus been
made. 1t should at all times be borne
in mind that whatever the weeds arc
allowed to appropriate to their own use
may just as well be directed to the pro
duction of desirable plants instead. We
know from experience that it is very
easy matter to talk about the destruction
of weeds. But there are times when
the weather will not admit of their being
so easily destroyed-the ground too wet
to work, or if stirred the weeds will not
be killed; and there are times, too, when
other matters are waiting to be attended
to as we'll as the weeds. Yet the rule of
action must be clean culture, and it
must be lived up to, or to a certainty
the weeds will get ahead. early and
often" should be the watchwOrd from
the start. 1t is far less work to kill the
weeds while they are just starting to
grow than to wait until they have be-
come well rooted. In the cornfield this
work can nearly all be done with horse
power, althoug h the hand hoe may be
proftably used occasionally in cleaning
out the hills. But the horse and Guilt
vator or double shovel must be relied on
principally to do the work. With the
rows straight and equi-distant both ways
as they always should be-the cJlltiva-
tor or double shovel can be adjusted so
as to run close up to the young plants,
with no danger of covering any of them
up. 1t is vastly cheaper and more ex-
peditious to do the work in this way
than with hoes. Nor need the crltiva-
ton be very deep if the land was pro-
perly prepared, surface working being
now what is mostly wanted, and killing
the weeds the principal object, the time
for deep working being before the corn
was planted. The cultivator or double
shovel should be kept running, however,
until the corn is large enough to shade
the ground, when there need be no fur
ther fear of the weeds.

A TUnPKNTINE farm IN Southeast
Georgia consists of from five to forty
crops of 10, 500 boxes each. The work
is sometimes carried on by the owners
of the pine forests themselves; again,
the trees are leased out for q certain
number Of years, two or three being
about the limit. Negro labor is princi
pally employed in tn s section. The
work commences in November, when
the boxing of the trees begins. The
boxes, which are cut sloping back into
the trees about foot from the ground,
measure three inches back at bottom

length. In March they are cornered;

lust above the ends of the boxes. Next
the faces for dripping are cut N-shaped
between and above the places Clipped.
The number of faces on each tree de-
ponds upon its size, varying from one
to three. Besides the original cutting
of the faces, the trees are hacked once
q week during the dripping season with
peculiarly shaped knife suited to the
purpose. The hacking increases the
length of the faces, as one or two inches
of bark are taken off above each time.
The dipping of the crude into barrels
begins about tho middle of March, and
the boxes are emptied seven or eight
times during the season. They hold

Condemned Without Hearing.

NEW YORK, September 9.-The Brooklyn
Standard Union this evening published a
long statement by one whose name is not
given, but who 10 vouched for a. being in a
position to know whereof he speaks. It pro-
fesses to show that McGlynn was condemned
and dismissed from the priesthood without
hearing. The essential features of the
story are in effect as follows:
DR.. Burtzell, acting in the capacity of
counsel for Dr.. McGlynn, prepared an elab-
orate..defense of his client and felt the ut
most confidence in his acquittal.
Cardinal Gibbons was in Rome,
and as he had taken strong
whose behalf Dr. McGlynn had suffered ad-
monition from Archbishop Corrigan and
Cardinal Siemoni, it was thought that he
was a good person to pre-
sent McGlynn's defense to the propa-
ganda. Accordingly it was forwarded to
him for that purpose, but the narrator goes
on to say that Cardinal Gibbons and Bishop
Keane were very much interested in carry
ing through the project of the Catholic Uni
versity and that the Cardinal was not will
ing to help.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, September 8.-A sensation

The value Of the estate does not exceed $780,

and it is in the prominence of all the parties
that the interest lies. According to
the will, the widow, Mrs. Buehlah Dickey,

such violent temper that he was obliged to
desert her for several years. Afterward
she compelled him, how is not stated, to make
the will ignoring his children. Then the
startling charge is made that when the
judge was on his death bed he begged the
presence of a lawyer for the purpose of
making new will. This boon was denied,
and it is charged that, pending the death of
the aged Judge, his wife, for purposes of her
own, would allow no one to see him but her.

Leavenworth wants More Coal.

LEAvENwoRTH, KAN, September Sat a
meeting of the board of trade tonight reso-
lutions were passed describing the splendid
coal basis surrounding Leavenworth, stating
that twenty coal shafts of $1,000 bushels Ca
pacity per day would not supply
the demands of the outlying territory and
favoring the voting of $4,000 in per cent
bonds as subsidy to each of two or more
coal shafts within the city limits, under
taken and carried through by reputable in
dependent companies with sufficient
capital and guarantees. A num-
Der of the most prominent
business men spoke favorably upon the
resolutions. 1t was stated that the capital is
to be ready to sink one or more mines if
such aid was voted; and seeing that
the demand for Leavenworth coal
is so great, it was urged to the speakers that
the meeting should act at once. The reso-
lutions were passed unanimously. These
two mines, added to the three we now have,
would make Leavenworth the largest coal
centre in Kansas.
